I'd say the anticipation of starting something new often magnifies its perceived challenges, making them seem much more daunting than they actually are once you're immersed in the experience. I remember delaying my own ventures for quite some time due to this fear factor. The prospect of launching a business, being self-employed, or taking on the risks inherent in any startup venture can be overwhelmingly intimidating in thought. However, once you're in the midst of it, it becomes more manageable, more about the day-to-day grind of problem-solving, adapting, and finding solutions on the go. You realize you can handle the challenges as they come. Overthinking tends to paralyze action more often than not. So, my advice would be: if you're intrigued by entrepreneurship, if starting your own business appeals to you, take the leap. The worst-case scenario is that you end up back where you started, without a business, but with valuable lessons learned. Embrace the journey.
